The edge of the pavement near the road is called the "curb" in the US and the "kerb" in the UK.

They are spelled differently but they are pronounced the same.

What is the point of view for the pedestrian?

In the UK we call the US sidewalk the 'pavement' and what the US calls the pavement (the paved area) is called the 'road' in the UK. However in both cultures I believe the edge of the pavement is called the curb. This may be just an end of the paved area or may be demarcated by a set of curb stones which raise the sidewalk above the height of the road surface.

Why edge mill asphalt?

Edge milling asphalt is done to create a smooth transition between different pavement surfaces, such as when matching new asphalt to existing pavement or preparing for an overlay. It helps remove uneven edges and surface irregularities, ensuring proper bonding and a seamless finish. Additionally, edge milling can facilitate drainage by creating a slight slope, enhancing overall road performance and longevity. This process is crucial for maintaining safety and ride quality on roadways.
